The show will start on August 17 on NHK General TV, and will focus on science news and the latest in health breakthroughs, all brought to you by Koichi and his scientist co-stars.

Koichi’s comment has been uploaded to the show’s website:

“I hope to use the show as a way to make people aware of the interesting and funny things behind what most of us take for granted, or what we see as normal. Once you watch this, you’ll see the things around you in an entirely different way!”
